[QUOTE="1markuk1, post: 109822, member: 23670"] Since developing Type 1 Diabetes two years ago I have become increasingly anxious on a day to day basis. I seem to avoid situations as I fear suffering a hypo and losing control. I now avoid social situations and shopping etc. I know deep down these feelings are related to anxiety. I used to be a happy person with a good social life but now my life is controlled by anxiety and the diabetes. I test my blood before any stressful situation and feel my situation is at an all time low. I plucked up the courage to go to my Doctor who put me on an antidepressant which doesnt seem to be helping. I am 35 and have worked all my life. I recently gave up my job which I had for seven years as I was working 70 plus hours per week and couldnt cope and decided for my health I had to get out. I took some agency work for a few months but am now not working. I want to be normal again and be able to go out and not have this dominating my life. Does anyone else have a similar experience?
